My favorite song is playing on my iPod while I'm in my workout mode. I have to get out all this pent up energy before getting on the jet for a 10 hour flight home.

I have been away for a few years to study well you might as well call it an Alpha College. It is where all the high ranking males of any creature go to learn the duties and responsibilities of all the ranks and train.

I'm really wondering if doing this will be good for anything. I have older siblings, twins, Andy and Angie. They are the first in line to take over being alpha or luna of the pack. But I continue to get the training and now I have graduated.

I just found out that my sister Angie has found her mate and is currently the luna in another pack. She moved away to that pack to be with her mate. Not long after she found her mate Andy found his mate, which is what normally happens with twins.

By the way my name is Angel, second in line to be alpha of the Blue Water Pack. My father is Alpha Blake, and my mother is Luna Angelica. I am a carbon copy of my father with the exception of my hair. His hair is blond and mine is jet black. I get that from my mom. It is a good contrast to my light blue eyes.

Well anyway, I am going to be on a jet in an hour. There is going to be a party to celebrate my graduation and homecoming. There is also going to be the coronation type of ceremony for my brother and his mate to take over as the Alpha and Luna of our pack.

So tomorrow is going to be a very busy day. My flight is fixing to be here so I give up on my workout and go take a shower and pack up the rest of my stuff that I haven't already sent home. I shipped everything not necessary earlier this week so I could take the jet home.

My phone goes off just before I board the plane.

"Hello" my dad says on the other end,"Son, are you ready to come home? Your mom is ecstatic and can't wait to see you."

"Yes I'm fixing to get on the plane now and be on my way home. I can't wait to see y'all as well." I replied.

"Well please let us know when you land so we can have a car waiting to pick you up." my dad says.

"Why would you need to send a car? Is something going on that I need to be aware of?" I am a little worried.

"We have tightened up the security more with the upcoming ceremony and other packs reporting more rogues in the area lately. It is just a precaution." dad says.

I get a gut wrenching feeling, with the ceremony of the alpha and luna happening, a rogue problem is a very serious matter. If they try to take over that would be the most opportune time to strike.

"I will be landing at about 7 in the morning", I say.

"Ok, we will see you soon son. It is gonna be great to have you home again." dad says as the call ends.

I get on the jet, get my ipod out, it's going to be a long flight.

Stepping off the jet feels good, the crisp clean breeze hits my face and my wolf knows he is home and is wanting to go for a run already. My wolf's name is Ezekiel. I let him know

We will get our chance to run when everything calms down. We have a lot of events coming for today.

After unloading all the luggage into the SUV, my packs beta, Cory.

" It's been a while. Going to be amazing having you back, now we can really party," he says smiling.

"You must be really busy to need me to be home to have a good party. Making a family with your beautiful mate?" I said with a wink.

"We have been trying to have a baby, but sometimes I would like a few minutes away with my partner in crime", he laughed.

"Ok, let's get home, Im ready to see the family and get the festivities going." I said.

We head out in the SUV and go toward the Packhouse.

I did let my mind wonder and got to thinking it would be nice to have a mate to come home to as well. Since I have not come across her yet means all good things come to those who are patient. My wolf senses have yet to form because my birthday is still a few days away. Im just going to enjoy the company of my family and friends now until that happens.

We made it to the packhouse at about 8:30am. My mom, Luna Angelica, was in the kitchen watching the food for the festivities coming and adding her touches here and there. I went in for a quick taste just to get hit with a wooden spoon.

"Hey, Stay Out!! No sneaking a bite."She says.

I quickly pull the kid card.

"Awe, but mom, how will we know if it is good if we dont sample? Don't you need a taste tester?" I said giving her the puppy dog sad eyes.

She smiles,"still the same I see, some things never change." as she pulls me into a big hug. "You could go to your room and rest. I know you had a long flight overnight to get here so early in the morning."

I sigh, "I guess I will go and get some rest and unpack some." I said heading up the stairs to my room.
